Urfi Javed opens up about her casting couch experience

Urfi Javed is always in news for one or the other reason. She has a love and hate relationship with netizens, as some love her unorthodox outfit choices, whereas some troll her mercilessly for not having 'fashion sense,' but the starlet doesn't care about the negativity on cyberspace. Recently, Urfi opened up about facing casting couch during the initial days of her career. Recalling the horrific incident Urfi told a news channel, 'I have also experienced casting couch. It just happened once when someone forced me, but I got out, so I consider myself very lucky. The men in the industry are very powerful. They have the right to reject you anytime. I have experienced casting couch from some big names in the industry whom I would not name.' Reacting on how much the online trolling effects her the actress said, 'I feel like trolling those trolls. It doesn't really affect me because when you rise up in your career, it doesn't matter what people below you are saying. For me, the voices of the trolls faint down. Hence, I don't listen to those people.' A while ago, in a conversation with a news portal, Urfi confessed that she will never marry a Muslim man. She said and I quote, ‘I will never marry a Muslim guy. I don't believe in Islam and I don't follow any religion, so I don't care who I fall in love with. We should marry whoever we want to.' Further, while stating that most of the hate comments she receives actually come from Muslim people only, she further added, 'I am a Muslim girl. Most of the hate comments I receive are from Muslim people. They say that I am tarnishing the image of Islam. They hate me because Muslim men want their women to behave in a certain way. They want to control all the women in the community. I don’t believe in Islam because of this. The reason why they troll me is that I don't behave the way they expect me to as per their religion.'
